Dear friend,

You dream of becoming a writer but are burdened by your fears.
You are worried that you have no talent and nothing to say. That you’re taking precious time away to pursue your selfish desire to write.

I am writing to give you hope.

You are worried that you have no talent. That is simply not true. You could do a much better job of writing a reassuring letter than I am doing!!! But seriously, you have a manner of speech that makes people interested in what you have to say. Your stories engaging and interesting to people from different walks of life, and everyone will be lucky if you decide to share them.

You are worried that you have nothing to say. That is not the case either. You often make very interesting connections between present and past experiences, and you really frame your thoughts about what people say by considering their background and behavior.

You are worried about taking time away to write. You have a great deal of free-time if you know how to find it!

Best of luck,
—Nooreen
